Call your Texas Representative!

Let’s hear it for the Lone Star State! The Lance Armstrong Foundation has helped change the way Texas deals with cancer by spearheading the campaign to pass a bill aimed at cancer research. At this moment, the bills have passed through the Senate Finance Committee (unanimously!), and are now looking for support from the Senate. If passed, the bills allow Texas to invest 3 billion (yes, BILLION) dollars over the next ten years for cutting edge cancer research and programs. If you are in Texas, write your elected officials and tell them how important this is.
